Biography
Ignatius D'Alessio was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to an Italian-American family, one of thirteen children. Ignatius and his brothers engaged in criminal activity, and Ignatius and his brother Leo D'Alessio became the two leaders of their gang. Ignatius was involved in burglary, armed robbing, gambling, and loansharking, among other crimes, and he decided to ally with Atlantic City bootlegger Mickey Doyle to fight against Chalky White and Enoch Thompson's organizations. The D'Alessio gangs robbed Lolly Steinman's casino to deprive Thompson of money, and they allied with Arnold Rothstein and Lucky Luciano against Thompson. When Rothstein and Thompson made peace, Ignatius went into hiding, only to be tracked down and murdered by Thompson's gunman Richard Harrow.
